>The rite of Dionysus climaxed in a performance of frenzied feats of strength and madness, such as tearing flesh apart with their bare hands, an act called sparagmos, and eating the flesh raw, an act called omophagia. >This latter rite was a sacrament akin to communion in which the participants assumed the strength and character of the god by symbolically eating the raw flesh and drinking the blood of his symbolic incarnation. >Having symbolically eaten his body and drunk his blood, the celebrants became possessed by Dionysus.Christbros... why does this sound so similar to holy communion??? Is Jesus a reincarnation of Dionysus?
>>18293167Jesus was a real person dabbling in religious reform and medicine.The average persons understanding of mythology equals severe schizophrenia and idiocy. And the average persons literacy and linguistic understanding is equally retarded. Jesus can be summed up as this;"Dude I'm literally shrooms bro."Body; Bread (yeast)Blood; Wine (alcohol is fungi excrement)Spirit; Company between believers. (you build social bonds and tell stories better while under the influence of the same substance/life experiences)tldr;the "Living word" is the drug-induced oral history of truth and honesty.

>>18293167Communion is in the Torah going onwards..Abraham was offered bread and wine by Melchizedek. Ruth was offered bread with vinegar by her redeemer Boaz. The Bread of the Presence given to David and his followers was sacred bread. Communion itself is Pesach.Evil can't create, only mock. (The demonic powers-that-be never ridicule the fake heathen gods- only the God of Israel. The demons who were destroyed by Him, at least, think He's the real one.)
>>18293685>people ate the staple food that made up almost all of their diet>and drank the next most common beverage after water>this is the same as using these substances as symbolic representations of the body of a god in a borderline shamanic ritualYour race lies like you breathe.
>>18293720How often are bread and wine eaten by themselves?(We're famous for scalping, not lying.)
>more Richard Carrier nonsensePicrel is what you retards look like
>>18293730All the fucking time. As I said, bread was the overwhelming majority of most people's diets. And wine was one of the most common things to wash it down with.You're not a heya hoya. You're a jew.

>>18293740Explain my credit then.
>>18293740We didn't even have wine before the whites came. And bread + wine are usually eaten with other things (still are in places like Italy.) The idea that it's the literal body of God is pretty rare.
>>18293167Jesus (Isa) is the Messiah, not an Avatar of someonedo not confuse your own mind, or you'll believe you're stuck
>>18293167Isa (PBUH) was the Messiah and the holiest of prophets
>>18294256>do not confuse your own mindthen stop impregnating your auntie-niece 3 times induced.
>>18293167Jesus was a Jewish larper trying to imitate the myth of Baldr and Dyonisus at the same timeJudas is Prometheus/loki
>>18293167He's a midrashic character, so no. But the jews who wrote him certainly did their best to make him relatable to the gentiles they were trying to subvert, so of course they copied a number of European myths in the process.
